    remapp@170000?

    Hi i was just wondering what the forums views are on having a remapp carried out on the s2 with 170000miles on the clock.The car had a full rebuild engine/gearbox @103000miles and has fsh up to 150000.When the rebuild was carred out a nothelle conversion also was added producing 300bhp.I wanted to get the car remapped,+ fit bigger intercooler/injectors but is the mileage a tad to high, a could i be asking for trouble!!If anyone has any views on it being a good/bad idea please let me know
    many thanks

    Probably worth doing a compression test to get a general idea of how things are bearing up...

      right will get that done but if the engine/gearbox were rebuilt roughly 700000miles ago the car should be safe to have remapped and to increase power??

        Well, vag drivetrains are pretty tough as a rule, especially with regular oil changes, but 700,000 could be pushing it a tad...

          Should not have any probs, engine and gearbox can run380ish bhp safely.

            ah sorry one to many noughts (70000miles)!The engine sounds good and the car had been serviced every 3-5000miles,with no expense spared!The only let down is the second owner(my uncle)Thats when the service ends and i expect it had a hard life!But he owned it for 12 years and only did 20000miles in it(those be hard driven miles though!)
